Those that do get screwed over are the ones who do the who thing outside the court system and then can''t prove the support they have been providing all along. Get a legal separation and your child support in a written order. If not in a written order, she does not have to declare it to the welfare office. Make sure to push the divorce along so you don''t get stuck supporting her longer than you have to. A legal separation will go a long way towards putting the responsibility for the welfare repayments on her. If you have a private arrangement with regards to child support make sure firstly that you two have a legal contract stating that, and that for each and every

A:
Yes- she can ask the court to order you to contribute toward private school; will she prevail? you have a good argument against it ( mainly she can stay in her current private school at no cost); many factors are considered ( incomes, ability to pay, needs of child, etc) It is theoretically possible. I never said it would happen, merely that it could. She can ask the court to change the order. I doubt she will get what she wants.

I live in MI also. If you have proof your child is not living with the CP, and have proof that his/her needs are being paid for by other means, you may be able to go to court to stop support payments to your ex, but beware....the court may make you pay the state to reimburse them for supporting your child. Do not just stop making payments...you will be in contempt and the amount due will continue to grow. You must go to court. Have valid proof of your child''s living arrangements, financial arrangements, etc. MI courts are notoriously slow....

“My ex husband has had no interaction with our minor child and lacks the finances to pay support, so he has asked to terminate his parental rights so that my new husband whom has taken care of my daughter since she was born can adopt her, my question is this : Can I write this paperwork up myself or do I need to hire an attorney to do this for me? Also, in either case, he has not paid support in almost year and I would ask that the arrearages be dropped so that we may just move on with our lives, is this possible or will he have to pay arrearages before terminating his rights?” You are at your option to be your own attorney in a family law or juvenile...

“My ex and I agreed to my paying $300.00 a month in child support for my 3 children. The courts further stated that I need to keep medical insurance on my children as well. I really don’t have a problem with either of these conditions, however, now my ex wants me to drop the insurance and pay her an extra $100 dollars a month in child support. I did a monthly budget calculation and have figured out that If I pay her the extra $100 dollars a month then I won’t be able to afford my bills. I know my ex though and if I tell her this she will just have the ODJFS re-evaluate my support order. Through an...

Unless he''s got something in writing, he cannot lawfully collect from you. The next time he comes over to demand money, call the police and explain that he is trying to extort funds from you. Then file a restraining order to keep him away. Most times those don''t work, but you need to be on record with an account of his behavior. The thing is, that you supported him for a month and he supported you, what seems for longer than that. He promised to pay you the deposit you payed, but unless it''s on paper, there is no way you can get that money. Good luck. you supported him i would say you don''t owe him .he owes you . is there leagle serviced in your area . you should be able to call a lawyer...
